Help me give my students the joy of coding with the creative possibilities of Lego.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Saunders's classroom raised $1,469

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Kids are in their screens so often that they forget how to play and build. Lego Spike provides an opportunity for students to explore and solve problems by working together to build a solution to an obstacle.
One of the major things I struggle with as an educator is how to make learning fun and engaging, these Lego Spike sets allow my students to do exactly that.
These Lego spike sets will allow for students to explore robotics, coding, and imaginative play. I mean, this is what I would have loved to play with as a student and I want to pass that love of exploring and creative problem solving on to my students.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
